Sara and Mark met in March 2021 in Newport Beach, CA. Naturally, they met for the first time over tacos & margaritas at a local Mexican spot- a mutual favorite! After their first date, the two were inseparable. They bonded over their goals and aspirations and quickly realized that they were a match made in heaven. The first year of their relationship consisted of many fun local Southern California trips, & lots of commuting between LA (where Mark was living) and Newport Beach (where Sara was living). Between 2021-2022, Mark & Sara attended 13 weddings among their closest family and friends! During these times of travel & fun, their love & bond grew stronger. In April 2022, Mark moved in with Sara in Newport Beach. They have been in 3 different places together since then- Newport Beach, Huntington Beach, and now Costa Mesa. Mark's dog, Charlie has been with them throughout their relationship; he is simply loved and adored for his friendly, charming personality. Lola, Sara's 8-month-old cavapoo puppy, has joined the party in August 2023! The family of 4 loves taking long beach walks, coffee shop dates, and snuggling on the couch at night. Mark and Sara share a love for the beach and being near the water, working out at their favorite local gyms, trying out the new hot restaurants in town, and cooking great homemade meals most nights of the week! The two share a love for travel and seeing or trying new places! Mark & Sara are excited to finally tie the knot in June and to grow their family in the near future!
